Stoke City have completed the signing of Welsh defender Morgan Fox. 

Fox, 26, joins the Potters after rejecting a new deal at Sheffield Wednesday.

The former Charlton Athletic defender left the Owls after four years of service, where he made 103 appearances in total.

He qualifies for Wales through his dad and made seven appearances for their U21s side, though he has yet to feature for the senior team.

Following his move to Staffordshire, he will now link up with fellow Welshmen Adam Davies, Joe Allen and Sam Vokes.

I’m really excited to be here at Stoke City,” said the Chelmsford-born defender.

“I’m looking forward to playing in front of the incredible fans, hopefully in the not too distant future.

“I promise to give my all for the shirt and can’t wait to get started.”

Also commenting on Fox’s arrival at the bet365 Stadium is manager Michael O’Neill, he said: “Morgan is a player who knows the Championship really well and at the age of 26 he’s still hungry to improve and play at a higher level.

“Left-back is an area we have been looking to strengthen and Morgan with his defensive acumen, athleticism and delivery from set-plays will be a great asset for us.”
